I think I still have the 386 it was running on when I finally shut it down. WildCat BBS from Mustang Software. Those were the days. CIS 75500,3223, that was me. However, 16 of the 17 hits of a Google search for my old ID are messages on this list from 2008 ;-) http://www.google.com/search?q="75500%2C3223"; I remember being excited when I had a "real" email address of [email protected] ... I had some really neat software for reading forums -- OzCIS -- and eventually OzCIS for Windows, which never really measured up to the DOS program. Never had a Prodigy address. I got an AOL address -- a couple of them, actually -- this year so I could support home-clients with AOL issues, and for IM purposes. Never use them, though. -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-895-3270 ~! No virus found in this incoming message.
